I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Intuitive (Sunnyvale, CA) in June 2010
Interview
Was called for an initial phone screening that went well. Then ended up being scheduled for in-person interviews. Ended up meeting with a total of 9 individuals at four different interviews... expect to meet with groups of 3-5 people (individually) so be sure you can block out a good time of day, or take a half day if you are working elsewhere. The interview coordinator takes some time to schedule interviews (at least when you are on the waiting end), and be prepared for any changes. Overall, pretty effective organization, but a lot of work. Which would probably be worth it if I was offered the job!

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Intuitive (Ottawa, ON)
Interview
Multiple interviews. Hr then regional manger then vp. Standard questions. Interesting company always doing a lot of hiring. Previous rep likely got dismissed for underperforming. High expectation culture from the sounds of it.
Easy. Standard interview process with recruiting manager, then with management, and then director. Usually ride along before final interview with senior leadership. Pretty standard for industry. Got offered the job about a week later. Way easier and less hassle than other med device companies
